"Live From" Winternationals

[BOB KIRKBRIDE]

Screwed again by NHRA! You'd think the "All Access" would be better this year, wrong.
Tuned in to watch stock eliminator and no dice. Video finally came on in Super Stock, it keeps freezing. I guess they think people only buy it for the Pros.

What happened on this pass?????????????????


Car#-Driver(Opp'nt)-RT-----ET-- Speed-----Car#-Driver(Opp'nt)-RT-----ET-- Speed
79 Nanette Stein 754 Lindy Lindholm
E1 ****WINNER**** 0.000 12.364 105.61 -0.028 11.388 115.00
O/SA Dial: 13.33 (+/-): -0.966 I/SA Dial: 11.38 (+/-):-008
Qualified: #33 12.382 -0.768 #1 11.274 -1.026

Stein nails the tree with a perfect light and then breaks out by almost a second. Wrong dial?
Lindholm runs 0.008 to his dial for the win.

She dialed in slower than the O/SA index and if she staged the car was out...He went red but I don't think that matters.....

Just trying to figure out what happened...

Anybody know??????

Thanx,
Bob

You can't race with a dial in that is slower than your index....

When she turned on the bottom bulb it should have gone red.....

Whatever happened after that didn't matter....

After looking at the video it looks like she got more than a full tree head start.....Can't dial 13.30 on a 13.15 index....

I'm confused....

Who knew??????

While we had the aluminum manifold dust-up, NHRA changed the rules....

Never saw it coming....

Back to the drawing board.....

Kind of what I figured, even went back thru Mike's live streaming feed but since they dial on the tower side you can't see what her dial was...perhaps one of our reporters can chime in...

...good one Mulry, whodathunkit?

Should been 2 bulbs and not a full tree plus......
